Kolstad had the following to say about the SoR project. “When [dj2 Entertainment producer Dmitri M. Johnson] first mentioned the idea of cracking a Streets of Rage movie, I was so immediately freaking in. And to play with Sega? The 10-year-old me is still grinning.” And here’s what Nakahara had to say… “Lionsgate is one of the most dynamic studios in the entertainment industry today. We look forward to working with them, Derek and our all-star producers to bring this compelling IP to life.” Need to get into the mood for a Streets of Rage movie? Do check out Streets of Rage 4, which I found to be one of most satisfying brawlers in a long time in my full review… “Streets of Rage 4 doesn’t reinvent the wheel, but honestly, that’s okay. The game’s dazzling visuals, silky-smooth action, varied level design, and sexy sense of cool more than make up for a few minor old-school irritations. Veteran Bare Knuckle brawlers will get the most out of Streets of Rage 4, but it should provide a satisfying thumb workout for players from all eras.” What do you think? Do you think a Streets of Rage movie could actually work? As long as they stay true to the source material and have the heroes eating turkeys out of garbage cans for health, I’m on board.
